In the eyes of that black-robed man.
The Golden Core True Lord behind He Song was weak, should have just broken through to the Golden Core realm not long ago, and was not an elder of a Nascent Soul great sect.
He even needed to look for things that could isolate tracking secret techniques to protect himself.
This kind of secret technique, in Nascent Soul great sects, even if not ubiquitous, is something that every Golden Core True Lord can learn.
From this, it can be seen that He Song's concerns were not false.
That black-robed Golden Core who sold the Green Jade Leaf to He Song, was very likely not wanting to help He Song because of his filial piety.
But rather wanting to capture He Song, and the "behind" He Song, that just broke through to Golden Core not long ago, weak Golden Core True Lord, all in one go.
For any Golden Core True Lord.
Even the weakest Golden Core cultivator, after intercepting and killing them, could obtain rich rewards.
After a Golden Core cultivator dies, their Golden Core can be used to refine Golden Core puppets, or even be used for alchemy, and is of considerable value.
After a Golden Core cultivator dies, all of their wealth will belong to the killer.
After a Golden Core cultivator dies, the Golden Core force behind him will definitely suffer a great loss in strength, and perhaps the killer could usurp their nest, or seize the treasures that this Golden Core force has treasured for many years.
It can be said.
As long as any Golden Core True Lord is killed, extremely rich benefits can be obtained.
And it is precisely because of such temptation.
That is why He Song felt that this black-robed Golden Core's purpose was impure.
That black-robed Golden Core was very likely to play tricks on the Green Jade Leaf, or on He Song's body.
Intending to intercept and kill that Golden Core True Lord who He Song claimed had just broken through.
Perhaps, this was also why that black-robed Golden Core wanted to sell the Green Jade Leaf to He Song for the price of thirteen thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
Thoughts surged in his heart.
He Song's face did not reveal the slightest bit of it.
Instead, he continued to move forward and strolled around in this hall.
Unfortunately.
Even if He Song had finished browsing through all dozens of private rooms in the entire hall.
He was still unable to see a second item similar to the Green Jade Leaf, which could make oneself unaffected by tracking secret techniques, and could also be traded with spirit stones.
The items displayed by those Golden Core True Lords were basically all wanting to barter.
Either to exchange for spirit pills for Golden Core realm use.
Or to exchange for inferior spirit artifacts, Golden Core secret techniques.
Or to exchange for natural treasures, precious spirit herbs, and so on.
Among these things, besides the inferior spirit artifacts left by True Lord Silver Moon and the two mid-grade spirit artifacts used by True Lord Silver Moon himself that could be exchanged, He Song had nothing.
For everything else, he could only sigh in despair.
But, True Lord Silver Moon was originally an elder of One Yang Sect before his death, if he took these things out, what explanation would He Song give if people from One Yang Sect saw them?
It should be known that True Lord Silver Moon, as a Golden Core late stage cultivator, had only disappeared for more than a hundred years.
More than a hundred years, for Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, might be a very long time.
But for Golden Core, or even Nascent Soul cultivators, it was nothing much.
In One Yang Sect, there must still be many Golden Core True Lords who are familiar with him, or even have received his favor, still alive.
If they were to know that True Lord Silver Moon ultimately died in his hands, and even his Divine Sense was ground to nothing by his Purple Cloud Sky Array.
He Song didn't even need to think about it to know what kind of change there would be in the attitude of those Golden Core True Lords towards him.
If you really want to talk about it.
He Song had directly killed a Golden Core True Lord of One Yang Sect.
Although this Golden Core True Lord only had a Golden Core left when He Song saw him.
But as long as he died in He Song's hands, those who were familiar with him, or even had received his favor, would naturally not have a good attitude towards He Song.
This is also why He Song, after breaking through to the Golden Core realm, did not think about joining One Yang Sect and becoming a Golden Core elder of One Yang Sect.
One Yang Sect.
For He Song, it was still best not to go.
He Song would not even take out those inferior spirit artifacts and mid-grade spirit artifacts that had True Lord Silver Moon's personal characteristics in this Cloud Prefecture Prefecture.
Naturally, when facing those things that needed to be exchanged for with inferior spirit artifacts, He Song also just glanced at them and then ignored them.
After browsing through the entire hall once.
And not finding anything that he could afford and particularly wanted.
He Song quietly left this place.
And quickly returned to his residence.
After the Golden Core True Lord exchange meeting ended, it also represented the end of this Golden Core grand gathering.
As the existences with the highest cultivation level, strongest strength, and highest status, when the Golden Core True Lords began to leave one by one, it naturally also represented the successful conclusion of this Golden Core grand gathering.
That night, after returning to his residence.
He Song quickly saw escape lights and flying boats flying away from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
At the same time, in the direction of the city gates of Cloud Prefecture Prefecture further away, a large number of escape lights also rose up, heading towards the distance.
Golden Core True Lords, compared to Foundation Establishment True Persons, still have some privileges.
For example, as long as cultivation level reaches the Golden Core realm, they can fly above Immortal Prefecture Prefectures without being punished in any way.
But if it is a Foundation Establishment True Person, they can only fly outside the city gates, once caught flying within the city, they would probably be caught by the city's law enforcement team in an instant.
At that time, wanting to escape would probably require paying a certain price.
Fortunately, even if Foundation Establishment True Persons do not use escape light, they can still travel quickly within the city relying on their movement techniques, so not many Foundation Establishment True Persons would use escape light in the city.
And this is also why when He Song saw escape lights and flying boats rising from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he immediately realized that the Golden Core True Lords had also begun to leave.
His gaze swept across the escape lights and flying boats constantly moving away outside the window, He Song's heart quickly calmed down.
The departure of the Golden Core True Lords was not unexpected by He Song.
And it did not have much to do with He Song.
But, He Song knew.
Once a large number of Golden Core True Lords left Cloud Prefecture Prefecture.
And he himself had not moved at all.
It would inevitably attract the attention of that black-robed Golden Core who had sold him the Green Jade Leaf before.
Although He Song was not yet sure whether that black-robed Golden Core had played any tricks on his body, or on that Green Jade Leaf.
But based on He Song's innate caution, it made him always feel that this matter would definitely not end so simply.
At least, at least.
There should still be some twists and turns.
He Song did not quickly take out the Green Jade Leaf to refine it.
He was waiting.
Waiting for an opportunity to completely get rid of this matter.
Waiting like this, he waited for several days.
Several days later.
The Golden Core grand gathering had already completely ended several days ago.
Golden Core True Lords had also bid farewell to the host here, left Cloud Prefecture Prefecture, and rushed back to their own territories.
Until today, the vast majority of Golden Core True Lords, and even foreign Foundation Establishment True Persons, had all left Cloud Prefecture Prefecture.
However.
Within Cloud Prefecture Prefecture, a Golden Core True Lord who had already left in a high-profile manner several days ago.
At this moment, he was on the second floor of an inconspicuous restaurant, looking towards the Treasure Gathering Pavilion with tightly furrowed brows.
"It shouldn't be like this, that brat bought my Green Jade Leaf, but instead of offering it to the senior who brought him here, he stayed in the residence arranged by the Treasure Gathering Pavilion."
"For several days in a row, he hasn't even left the door, if it wasn't for still being able to sense that the Green Jade Leaf and him are still there without moving, I would have really thought this brat could deceive the heavens and cross the sea."
"However, these past few days have passed, the vast majority of Golden Core True Lords have already left, only a few Golden Core True Lords who are friendly with Purple Robe are still staying here as guests."
"Among them, there doesn't seem to be any cultivator who has just broken through to the Golden Core realm."
"Could it be that what this brat said before was lying to me?"
"The Golden Core True Lord behind him, is actually not a newly broken through to Golden Core realm, weak rogue cultivator?"
"But one of those Golden Core True Lords who are friendly with True Lord Purple Robe?"
"But this shouldn't be either, judging by his decisiveness when buying the Green Jade Leaf at that time, how could it be the reaction of buying a useless item?"
"…"
Many thoughts constantly turned in his mind, the black-robed Golden Core's expression was uncertain, and between his brows, there was even more worry.
"Could it be that the Golden Core True Lord behind this brat is the one who convened this Golden Core grand gathering?"
Until a certain moment.
An ominous guess suddenly appeared in the black-robed Golden Core's mind.
"No no no, impossible, that one is the personal disciple of True Lord Purple Robe, and will soon be transferred from this place to serve as the Pavilion Master of the main pavilion of Treasure Gathering Pavilion elsewhere, how could he lack inferior spirit artifacts like the Green Jade Leaf."
"It should be me overthinking."
"However, if not like this, why hasn't this brat left yet?"
"Could it be that he sensed something was wrong, and has already let the Golden Core True Lord behind him leave, and he himself stayed here to delay time?"
"…"
As time continued to pass, the guesses in the black-robed Golden Core's mind became more and more numerous.
The abnormality of He Song's behavior was really something that he couldn't help but speculate wildly about.
And this.
Was also precisely one of He Song's purposes.
If he didn't give him time to speculate wildly, then how could his attention be attracted by He Song's next actions?
Today, several days later.
He Song finally walked out of his residence.
And soon, guided by a person from Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he went to the location of Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
The place where He Song lived was not far from Treasure Gathering Pavilion, but rather very close.
This was also the reason why that black-robed Golden Core did not dare to act recklessly here and capture He Song for indiscriminate interrogation.
This place was too close to Treasure Gathering Pavilion, rashly taking action would very likely attract the attention of others.
It should be known that within the Treasure Gathering Pavilion of Cloud Prefecture Prefecture now, there are still several Golden Core True Lords present.
Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
He Song quickly, guided by a person from Treasure Gathering Pavilion, arrived at the place where he had met True Lord Luo Jing more than half a month ago.
Today, it was still True Lord Luo Jing and her junior sister True Person Cloud Jing meeting He Song here.
Today's meeting was requested by He Song.
Not an invitation from True Lord Luo Jing.
His purpose was naturally not the wine drinker's heart being set on wine, seemingly coming to bid farewell to True Lord Luo Jing, but in reality wanting to completely get rid of the surveillance of that black-robed Golden Core.
According to He Song's idea.
In case that black-robed Golden Core had left any tracking marks on the Green Jade Leaf, or on his own body.
He only needed to, when meeting True Lord Luo Jing today, remove the tracking marks on his body himself, and then slightly refine the Green Jade Leaf, ensuring that there were no other people's marks in it.
After the tracking marks that might exist on his body were removed, and the Green Jade Leaf was also slightly refined, and no longer controlled by others.
That black-robed Golden Core would naturally blame all of this on True Lord Luo Jing.
And True Lord Luo Jing's identity is special, with True Lord Purple Robe as her master, and Treasure Gathering Pavilion backing her.
Presumably, even if he suffered a loss, that black-robed Golden Core could only swallow his anger and silently endure this loss.
As for He Song.
After completely removing the tracking marks on his body, and slightly refining the Green Jade Leaf, the opportunity obtained from that black-robed Golden Core had already fallen into his hands, with no further troubles.
When He Song wanted to leave later, he would naturally be able to leave at any time.
In the case of clearing all tracking marks, that black-robed Golden Core would definitely not be able to trace He Song's whereabouts.
As for True Lord Luo Jing who was slightly used by He Song.
Because of her identity and background, even if she is resented by that black-robed Golden Core, she probably would not be in any danger.
As a Golden Core True Lord of Treasure Gathering Pavilion, and even more so with a group of Golden Core cultivators such as her master and uncle-master protecting her, True Lord Luo Jing's safety was naturally extremely high, and she did not need to worry about resentment from the black-robed Golden Core.
Even less need to worry about her own safety.
Her identity and background destined her to be able to have a smooth journey after stepping into the Golden Core realm.
Moreover, even if the black-robed Golden Core makes things difficult for her in the future, He Song will not stand idly by.
Therefore, He Song's action could both allow him to obtain what he needed.
And also be able to get rid of the gaze of that black-robed Golden Core without revealing his own cultivation level.
And also would not let True Lord Luo Jing encounter any threat.
Calculating like this, it was simply effortless, only spending thirteen thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and he obtained the opportunity he needed.
Pondering these things in his heart, after He Song saw True Lord Luo Jing, while exchanging pleasantries with her, he also quickly began his plan.
First.
He Song secretly manipulated magical power, and washed over all parts of his body, including clothes, hair, etc., ensuring that the tracking marks on his body had been destroyed.
After that, he quietly took out the Green Jade Leaf from his storage pouch and placed it in his palm, and secretly gathered magical power, and quickly began refining the Green Jade Leaf in his palm.
The Green Jade Leaf was an inferior spirit artifact.
If it was necessary to completely refine it, it would probably take two to three years.
But He Song now did not want to refine it completely in one go.
He only slightly refined it to ensure that there were no traces of others on this Green Jade Leaf, and that he would not be tracked by others.
Under such low requirements, He Song only slightly refined the Green Jade Leaf in a short period of time, which could ensure that there were no traces of others on the Green Jade Leaf, and that he would not be tracked by others.
After confirming that there were no more tracking marks on his body, and the Green Jade Leaf completely belonged to him.
He Song then bid farewell to True Lord Luo Jing and returned to his residence again.
